The ASSOCIATION FOR SPECIALIST FIRE PROTECTION (ASFP) has published the 2nd edition of its Best Practice Guide in Passive Fire Protection, which contains comprehensive information about the installation, specification, commissioning and purchasing of passive fire protection.
The Guide defines the roles and responsibilities of professionals with responsibility for the fire safety of a building throughout its lifecycle, from design, through to occupation. It includes advice for the client/developer, designers, main and specialist contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, regulators and enforcers, as well as the building occupier. Three major sections offer in-depth guidance on designing for passive fire protection; constructing, supplying and installing passive fire protection products; and maintaining passive fire protection.
